Mary-Anne has drawn on her own family history to inspire and inform her writing including her Irish ancestors during the Gold Rush, her grandfather's experience as an original Anzac and her uncles service during WWII.
Mary-Anne's first novel 'Gallipoli Street' ranked the third highest debut novel in Australia in 2015 and both subsequent novels are also bestsellers. In A Great Southern Land is one of Australia's biggest historical sagas of 2019 and is currently on release internationally - to great acclaim.
